The pedalling of FES is written with a hand of a pupil, yet one can believe that it corresponds to the indications coming from Chopin. Similarly in bar 5.

Our variant suggestion

..

In fact, the numerals written into FED and FES can be treated jointly, yet, most probably, they indicate different fingering of the first five semiquavers:

  • 5-4-3-2-1 in FED,
  • 3-2-1-3-1 or 4-3-1-3-1 in FES.

b. 11-12

composition: Op. 25 No 7, Etude in C♯ minor

Fingering written in FES

No teaching fingering

..

The fingering is written with the pupil's hand, most probably in the place of the less legible, pencilled fingering written by Chopin (cf. bars 13 and 14).

Fingering in EE2 (→EE3)

..

The fingering of FES is written with the hand of the pupil, with ink, on the slightly visible, pencilled numerals written by Chopin (cf., bar 14). Chopin wrote the same indications in FED. The fingering added in EE2 (→EE3), in spite of being compatible with the Chopin one, is undoubtedly an addition of the reviser.
